Ahhh another month another empties blog. I actually got through quite a bit of makeup this month, which is unusual for me as it's usually skincare I crank through.
The first product I used up was my beloved Glossier Futuredew. I didn't realise how much I loved this until it was gone. My makeup feels so much different without this as a base and I do miss it as part of my makeup routine. I have a few other primers to get through but I will definitely repurchase this one in the future.
The second product I used was my benefit liquid eyeliner. I did like this liner; it's opaque, the felt tip is quite nice and it lasted such a long time before drying up. I do prefer brush tipped eyeliners as I find with hooded eyes my winged eyeliner always looks a lot more precise than with a pen style. So I purchased the KVD liquid eyeliner instead, but the benefit eyeliner is great just not my favourite.
My third empty is my smash box primer water. I adore this spray, it comes out as a fine mist and feels really nice as a primer and setting spray. This is a favourite setting spray of mine, but with lockdown I've found some really great affordable drugstore alternatives that I don't mind spraying on my face to sit inside all day. So I may repurchase this in the future but I'm happy with my drugstore ones for now.
My next empty is my Lancome Monsieur Big Waterproof mascara. I adore this mascara and it was a complete saviour when my eyes were watering so much from accutane. I've been loving non waterproof formulas at the minute, just because they're so much easier to get off and I usually only use waterproof formulas when I'm going out ... and I'm not exactly doing that at the minute.
Now for skincare. I used up The Ordinary's Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%. This has saved my pores from clogging since coming off accutane... I've even got my husband using this. It's amazing and it's so affordable, I've already purchased the larger size of this and it's become a staple in my skincare.
Next I used up my Deage Aqua Lift Serum. This product was a dream to use and It really hydrated my skin. I probably won't repurchase this purely because of the price but if my skin becomes super dry again I would definitely consider the splurge because it really works!
Finally I finished off my Garnier Hair Mask. This is a staple in my hair care routine and I rarely purchase anything new or different. But... Amika kindly sent over their shine mask for me to try so I think it's time to try something new!
